| Abstract: | The metabolism of fosetyl-aluminium to phosphonic acid in the peel of citrus fruit has been studied by gas chromatography using a nitrogen-phosphorus detector and also with a flame photometric detector. At the same time the phosphonic acid residues remaining in the peel and the pulp of citrus fruit, as a result of the application of aqueous solutions of fosetyl-aluminium at 2.5 g litre?1 to trees prior to harvest was determined. |
